MSP430F1101A

Hi

I read from manual:  Typical applications include sensor systems that capture analog signals, convert them to digital values, and then
process the data for display or for transmission to a host system.

I don't see any serial out (spi...) how to do a trasmission to a host system? By GPIO ?

Thank 

Mario.

  • Mario,

    you're right - the device does not have onboard peripherals like an USI or USCI module.
    But there are various ways of outputting data like the parallel output for a HD44780 for example.
    Or you can do SPI or I²C with the GPIOs. Google for bitbanging - very simple for "emulating" a SPI communication.
    For UART you can use two GPIOs and a timer module to generate the right baudrates.
    The MSP-EXP430G2 LaunchPad had a processor with a software UART programmed into it when it was delivered because the USI module does not support UART.
